Page 30 of rfc821.txt actually indicates that "[123.255.37.2]" is a valid SMTP FROM syntax:
ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc821.txt <domain> ::= <element> | <element> "." <domain> <element> ::= <name> | "#" <number> | "[" <dotnum> "]" " Sometimes a host is not known to the translation function and communication is blocked. To bypass this barrier two numeric forms are also allowed for host "names". One form is a decimal integer prefixed by a pound sign, "#", which indicates the number is the address of the host. Another form is four small decimal integers separated by dots and enclosed by brackets, e.g., "[123.255.37.2]", which indicates a 32-bit ARPA Internet Address in four 8-bit fields." I'm not surprised that modern MTAs reject it, though. Courier wants nothing to do with it, and I can't blame it. ~BAS On Thu, 2008-04-17 at 15:05 -0400, Brian A.
